Oktoberfest 2009

This weekend Jeremy and I went to the Oktoberfest in Fredericksburg. My Aunt Betty and Uncle Don invited us for the day on Saturday and we took them up on the offer. Jeremy tried out some different beers and we had a good time, despite the rain.
Aunt Betty and Uncle Don and Jeremy and I both tried out the German attire.

Don't forget that tomorrow, Tuesday October 6, is National Night Out. Get outside and meet your neighbors. Jeremy and I plan to attend the party in our neighborhood....I'll let you know how it turns out.

Fun Fun Fun

Today we returned from San Angelo. Jeremy helped his dad at the deer lease this weekend and we also went to the Grape Creek football game Friday night. Grape Creek is where Jeremy went to high school and played football and this weekend happened to be their homecoming. We also got to spend some time with our niece Payton this weekend....she is such a cutie, as you can see for yourself!

Last weekend Jeremy and I went to Brenham for the county fair. We had a lot of fun. Congratulations to Paige for winning first place in the talent show. She sang a Taylor Swift song and did a great job.

I also included a picture of Jeremy and Julie in this post. Somehow I always have pictures of them together and I totally miss out on pictures with my own husband...go figure!

Also Congratulations to Alyssa and Nathan on their engagement. I got a call from Alyssa today letting me know that while they were on their vacation this past week Nathan finally popped the question.....and she said yes!! We are super excited for them and can't wait for their big day.

Congratulations Tanner and Amy

It's official- Mr. and Mrs. Tanner Weinert. The wedding took place this past Saturday and everything was beautiful!

Loving the holiday!

It's Sunday evening and Jeremy and I are super excited that we don't have to go to work tomorrow. We are both only working three days this week because we have the holiday Monday and we are both off Friday so that we can get to Brenham for my brothers wedding.
Today I returned from San Antonio because Amy's bachelorette party was this weekend. We left for San Antonio Friday and got back today. Jeremy went to see his family and spend the weekend with them at their lake house on Lake Buchanan and he too returned today.
This week is sure to pass by quickly and the wedding will be here.
Longhorns won their opening game yesterday-- Hook Em Horns!!

Adios Laredo!!

The house is SOLD! All the documents are signed and the check is almost in...we have to mail it tomorrow but the buyers part is all done so we are considering ourselves free of the Laredo house. We are so grateful that it moved as fast as it did because we expected to have to sit on it longer than just three months, with the housing market the way it is right now.

Catching up...

I am a little behind on posting so I have a few things to say....all good!!

Congratulations to Brenna (Schmidt) and Mike Clements on their beautiful wedding this past weekend. Everything was beautiful and we had a great time. I also got to see my bestie Brooke Copelin as her baby shower was this past weekend in Chappell Hill. She is such a cute pregnant woman...I'll try to post some pictures soon!

Happy belated Anniversary to my parents. They celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary this past Tuesday. What an awesome milestone in their life and what great role models for us.

We have received an update on the Laredo house. As of now we are supposed to receive the closing documents this coming week, we will sign them and fedex them back to the title company. We are super pumped about the closing being so soon because that means we won't make another payment on that house...we just have to pay off the debt due to the house selling for less than what we owe on it. We were a little bummed about not having to go to Laredo because we wanted to see everyone one more time but we decided that it's probably best right now since we have so much other stuff going on with my brothers upcoming wedding, and it's not like we have a house to live in down there so we would have to pay for a hotel. We plan to make a trip soon though so that we can see everyone.

This weekend is sure to be fun. Gretchen is on her way to visit for the weekend as I type this update and Jeremy has peaced out for the weekend. He decided that he didn't want to be left alone with all the girl talk so he went to spend the weekend with his dad at their lake house on Lake Buchanan. Crystal was supposed to join us on Saturday but something came up so she is not able to.

I also want to congratulate Alyssa for graduating with her RN degree. She finished school this past week and I know that it has been tough for her working full time and being a full time student. We are proud of you Alicia (that's what Jeremy and I call her...it's a long story).

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

update!

This past weekend was great. We went to Brenham Friday night and helped prepare for the garage sale that we were having Saturday morning at mom and dads house. We had a great time laughing at all the junk and old clothes that was being put in the garage sale. My dad has a modeling side to him that I have never seen before....it was hilarious!

Saturday morning was the garage sale and we did okay. The one time that we were all prepared and organized by 7am, we didn't have our first customer until nearly 8am. Typically, they are knocking down the door at 6:30, but not this time.

The best part of the weekend came Saturday afternoon/evening.....Jeremy and I went to see George Strait in Houston. We not only saw George Strait but we saw Blake Shelton and Sugarland. They all performed wonderfully and I would definitely be willing to see Sugarland and George Strait again in the future. I have added some pictures for you to check out.
